So, I've put on approx 13lb since I got married 8 weeks ago - surely that's some kind of record? It's not really something I want to boast about to be honest, but it's kinda confirmed my theory that I AM NOT one of those people who can eat anything they want and stay slim. That's definitely not me.
So by the time we go on honeymoon in Jan I need to have lost 13lb, plus another half a stone (at least) and be all toned and fit in time for beaches, trekking and pampering. By my calculations then, I need to lose 5lb per month to be a skinny malinky by Jan - plus, I need to navigate the gluttony that is the festive period.
My first move will be to join a lunch time Slimming World literally a couple of feet away from my work. I'm sceptical, but figure it's something I can follow blindly for a few weeks and if it doesn't work I can always go back to the old failsafe of cutting out rice, pasta, potatoes and bread... it's dull, and it encourages binging when you finally allow yourself to one of the 'forbidden' food groups, but at least I knows it gets results if all else fails. Still, I like the idea of having a balanced diet in the traditional sense. First class is on Wednesday... already a bit nervous.
